FiberXers go two in a row

MANILA, Philippines — Converge started weak but finished strong to foil Phoenix Super LPG, 116-105, and notch back-to-back wins in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup last night at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
Dropped to an early 18-point hole, the FiberXers picked themselves up and got to within manageable levels with a 33-24 salvo in the second and wrested control with a 39-26 exchange in the third.
They carried their fiery run over to the final canto, 29-25, to complete the follow-up to their 102-91 win over NLEX last Tuesday and go two in a row for the first time in the mid-season conference.
With this, the FiberXers hiked their overall win-loss record to 4-2.
The Fuel Masters, after stopping their four-game winless spell with a 115-109 takedown of erstwhile unbeaten NorthPort, found themselves back on the loss column, toting 1-5.
Later, TNT drubbed Blackwater, 109-93, to go on a two-game roll after a sluggish 0-2 opening. The Bossing fell to 1-5.
